Like the title says im trying to 2 box on the same machine. at first it sounded easy enough but then after I got both accounts I realized I needed some way to control both characters spell casting. I looked it up and everything I see is for keybindings. Is there anything out there that I can work with if I have to click all my spells? like sending my mouse clicks to diff windows... been looking for a bit now and nothing...

1 PC
2 monitors
Both monitors have a copy of wow active
Both instances of wow are running in windowed mode always... well when im playing anyways.
I can have those be the only active windows or not, either way works.


the setup works great just



key clone came up so I looked at it and a few others ( for the last 3hrs or so) What I have no seen is a way to send my mouse clicks to my other window.

Sorry, but there are plenty of topics about this. If it is to hard to find this info on this forum, multiboxing is NOT for you...

Good luck.

(oh and if you find something it will look like "don't use your mouse, but use your keyboard. Buy keyclone and enjoy multiboxing!")

Octopus seems like it could do but having a hard time finding a users guide of sorts

Theres a guide (pdf) you can get from one of the stickies in here, I've been following it since last night and it's easy to follow and informative.

but i cant for the life of me find it now..

In anycase check the sticky threads before asking and you should find what you neen normally. ;)

Keyclone is only 20 bucks, which is nothing if you're paying for two copies of the game and two or more monthly subscriptions.
The author gives very good support, via these forums. That alone makes the 20 bucks a great deal.

Octopus is a free option, but there's a lack of support, at least compared to Keyclone.
I've never tried Octopus, but can assure you Keyclone works very well.

been looking for a bit now and nothing... I loled at that xD

open your eys, turn on screen, put on glasses or whatever and refresh this site, the answers you are searching for are the most common on these forums I believe, and as the others said, if you cant find it, multiboxing is probably not recommended for you :rolleyes:
